My Voice: Adobe Youth Voices Art Contest

My Voice is the art contest associated with the Adobe Youth Voices program at TakingITGlobal. We invite you to create meaningful digital art that voices your ideas, hopes, concerns and perceptions about issues happening in your world (this could mean your community, your country, or the globe) When you are developing your piece, think about the following questions: What are the issues I see in my community that need to be addressed? How can I, as a young person, impact change in my community and in the world? How can the world help young people develop louder voices to support their social causes of interest? Use the skills you've started to develop during your Adobe Youth Voices workshops and create projects to help you practice using Adobe software, think critically about the social issues around you, and create with purpose.
